Hi
This will get you started.

Fetcher[
draw Bollinger band (20)
set {A, upper bollinger band (20) minus lower bollinger band (20)} add column A
A reached a new 90 day low
Close > 2 and average volume (30) > 300000
]



Change 90 day low to what you want.

See ya
David

May I make a few suggestions?

Be sure to Draw the xMomStudy because, this appears to be an important graph of the Carter Squeeze.

I prefer the custom ema length to be 5

I Added dots to the xMomStudy to show where the squeeze is occurring, both above and below the bars are all green dots. I couldn't find a way to change the colors.

data-miner, Please post the filter that includes the green dots. Thank you.

Also, what are the recommended entry and exit triggers to swing trade this filter? Thanks again for your help.

Strange that you use GOGO as I'm am watching it also. The below code is using the Guppy MMA's traders short term group as they are rolling over meaning they are becoming bullish.

Set{cnt217,count( eMA(2) > eMA(17) ,1)}
draw cnt217
Set{cnt217b,count( eMA(2)< EMA(17) ,1)}

draw cnt217b

*/ 217 is number of consecutive days ema(2) above (+)/below(-) previous EMA(17) */
set{217b,days( ema(2) is above EMA(17) ,250)}
set{217a,days( ema(2) is below EMA(17) ,250)}
set{217, 217a - 217b} and add column 217 {217}
do not Draw 217


draw ema(2)
draw ema(3)
draw ema(4)
draw ema(5)
draw ema(6)
draw ema(7)
draw ema(8)
draw ema(9)
draw ema(10)
draw ema(11)
draw ema(12)
draw ema(13)
draw ema(14)
draw ema(15)
draw ema(16)
draw ema(17)

Here are my modifications to novacane32000's original post above
See the "PlotType" below for the addition of the dots.

I also prefer having the Keltner to 1.5

I am no expert at the use of the TTM Squeeze I had read one article that suggested a keltner to bollinger ratio (KBRatio) of 1 to signal an alert. I added a column for it and i have been looking at those above .90 that were below .90 two days ago

I have also been experimenting with the price crossing the upper (or lower) bollinger / keltner bands.
and perhaps xMomStudy crossing above 0.

Finally in what I have been experimenting with, I do not draw any charts except price, volume, xMomStudy and momentum(12). I removed all columns that I wasn't interested in. But I left them in this in case someone wants to keep them

data-miner, Thank you very much for posting the filter and for your input on possible entries and exits. Member input and feedback is the main reason why I like SF.
